Runtime error



I have an access program I would like to distribute to many computers
that do not have access. I have Office Developer and have used the
Packaging Wizard to put together the software, however when I try to
load it on one of the computers in our office it has an error. "ERROR
75 Path/File access error. An unexpected Setup error has occurred."
I do not know what is causing it or how to fix it. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Coy

shot in the dark, but it sounds like you're trying to install software
in a path that doesn't exist.
From MS Site:


<snip>
Path/File access error (Error 75)

See Also Specifics

During a file-access or disk-access operation, for example, Open,
MkDir, ChDir, or RmDir, the operating system couldn't make a connection
between the path and the file name. This error has the following causes
and solutions:

* The file specification isn't correctly formatted.

A file name can contain a fully qualified (absolute) or relative
path. A fully qualified path starts with the drive name (if the path is
on another drive) and lists the explicit path from the root to the
file. Any path that isn't fully qualified is relative to the current
drive and directory.
* You attempted to save a file that would replace an existing
read-only file.

Change the read-only attribute of the target file or save the
file with a different file name.
* You attempted to open a read-only file in sequential Output or
Append mode.

Open the file in Input mode or change the read-only attribute of
the file.
* You attempted to change a Visual Basic project within a database
or document.

You can't make design changes to the project.

How to Resolve Path/File Access Error in Setup Wizard
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=170695 mentions this problem but its for when you
are creating the images and is for Access 97.

OFFXPDEV: Error Message: "Path/File Access Error" Installing a Run-Time Application
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=303227 "Obtain and install the Office XP
Developer Service Pack 1 (SP-1). Then, repackage the application and redistribute it
to users who are running Microsoft Windows 98 or Microsoft Windows Me to resolve the
issue."

Do you have two files with the same name in two different directories when you built
the image? Such as readme.doc in the main folder and readme.doc in a subfolder?
Just guessing though.
